No Apologies

No Apologies
By Kevin Robey
March 17, 2013

Overdue apologies will never come
You’ll never answer for what you’ve done
You left me in a state of disarray
There’s nothing left to really say

You saved me from that hopeless misery
Then you let me fall back to the sea
I’m drowning here, I’ll never win
Cause I found that my demons can swim

You took down all of my walls
Then let loose the dogs of hell
I thought you were my angel
Instead you threw me down my well

You really felt nothing, that’s what you said
Your candy covered lies captured my heart
Was it a sick joke, to see how much I’ve bled?
How did I not see all of this from the start?

Blinded by your reflection in the stars above
I couldn’t see that lost look in your eyes
Took your passion and confused it with love
The disconnect with the pain you disguised

Looking back now, it seems like such a joke
Unspoken truths you thought but never wrote
Stick this in your pipe and have a nice smoke
I can’t say you even deserved my last bus note

Thought you were an angel sent down to earth
But you were the demon, from dreams forgotten
The smokescreen you displayed, and called it rebirth
A sweet candy apple shell, the core was so rotten

So I don’t care anymore, I’ve changed the final score
Cleansed your poison from my body, and from my mind
Found the lure to recast my line and discovered more
Release yourself, you’d be surprised what you’ll find
